This chapter reviews 65 research studies (representing 69 different samples) on personal repeat victimization—defined as experiencing more than one of the same type of personal victimization. Definitions, descriptions, and operationalizations of repeat victimization were reviewed across studies, along with samples, methods, and prevalence rates. While nuances existed, this research broadly defined, operationalized, and/or referred to repeat victimization as experiencing more than one victimization. Various types of victimization were examined, but a substantial proportion of this literature explored violent/physical victimization, assessing these experiences among general population, school-based, and high-risk samples. Prevalence rates ranged widely, depending on the sample used, victimization type(s) explored, and the measurement of recurrent victimization.

摘要

This chapter reviews 65 research studies (representing 69 different samples) on personal repeat victimization—defined as experiencing more than one of the same type of personal victimization. Definitions, descriptions, and operationalizations of repeat victimization were reviewed across studies, along with samples, methods, and prevalence rates. While nuances existed, this research broadly defined, operationalized, and/or referred to repeat victimization as experiencing more than one victimization. Various types of victimization were examined, but a substantial proportion of this literature explored violent/physical victimization, assessing these experiences among general population, school-based, and high-risk samples. Prevalence rates ranged widely, depending on the sample used, victimization type(s) explored, and the measurement of recurrent victimization.
